I love watching Bobby Flay's show, its fun when he goes and surprises owners of restaurants when they do a perfect yummy tasty dish and try to compete with them with his own style, its absolutely challenging for them!
This week i was tired, sick with the dusty weather and wasn't able to cook any new dishes :/ So watching Food Network was the highlight of my lazy slouchy day.
Father Leo is also a great cook and has his own cook book he is a very cool vibrant priest, very FUN to watch, he loves to cook food that "brings family together" so he was cooking steak fajitas in his own way and recipe and then came along Bobby Flay surprising him with his crew to compete the best meat fajita wrap!
A little of inspiration from both mixed to mine and the available ingredients i had in the kitchen i came up with absolutely a simple yet YUMMMY results!
Ingredients:
1 bag of flour tortillas
3 slices of pounded meat steaks
1 red bell pepper
1 yellow bell pepper
1 orange bell pepper
1 white onion thinly sliced
1 handful shredded lettuce
balsamic vinegar
cheddar cheese
sour cream
jalapenos
* check the Guacamole recipe, on an older post "tacos" *
The meat:
Marinate the steak with:
2 cloves of minced garlic
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoons of apple vinegar
1 tablespoon oregano
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
mix all together, put in a Ziploc bag and refrigerate it for at least one hour.
In the meantime, roast orange, yellow, red bell peppers in the oven, wrapping each with 1 tablespoon of olive oil wrapped in foil for at least 2o min until they are nice smooth and tender.
Let it cool down, then cut them into strips and leave aside.
While the peppers are roasting start chopping 1 white onion into long thin strips, place them in a oven plate, add 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar and a dab of olive oil with a pinch of salt and pepper, pop them in the oven and let them caramelize.
NOW, the meat
place the grilling pan on high fire, then add the meat pieces and have it grill both sides until its cooked, cut the meat into thin slices on the pan, then on a separate bowl mix 2 tablespoons of BBQ sauce and 1tablespoon of Ketchup, brush it over the meat strips and flip both sides just for anice quick saucy glaze, add the peppers and onions and mix all together on the grill.
on a separate pan, heat the tortillas on both sides and start filling in your wrap
1. spread the tortillas with sour cream
2. add the meat with veggies
3. top it of with Cheddar cheese
4. some lettuce
5. a couple of jalapenos
6. wrap it tight and cut it into two pieces
